Chapter Seventy-Three: Turning the Tide
The shrill sound of cicadas rang in Lin Nian's ears, and the footsteps and screams of the crowd in the hall suddenly became far away, far away, and his consciousness seemed to drift to a distance beyond his touch with those sounds...
Syllable!
Lin Nian slapped himself hard, the sharp tingling sensation pulled his consciousness back to reality, the tinnitus suddenly disappeared, and the chaotic human voice once again occupied his hearing.
He barely stood up and looked around, and the hall of the inpatient department was full of panicked crowds, like the unstoppable black waves of the night tide.
Lin Nian hissed a breath of cold air and touched the back of his head and found that it was sticky, and when he turned his head, he found that the tiles on the ground were cracked like spider webs, and there was some blood in the center.
But compared to this... Where is Helena?
Lin Nian forcibly suppressed the vomiting sensation in his throat, glanced at the direction of the women's toilet, the door had already disappeared, turned his head and quickly swept his eyes over the surrounding crowd, and found that several agile men were quickly squeezing towards the crowd, probably the senior commissioners who came to support.
"Report casualties, are there any casualties in the undercover team?" Beta'? 'Beta'? ”
Lin Nian's ears sounded the instructor's inquiry again, and he immediately pressed the headset and replied: "It's not a big deal, I just hit my head, what about 'Marita'?" Did anyone see 'Marita'? ”
"In the hands of the murderer, hell, that guy is really hiding in the women's bathroom...'Beta' Can you see the main entrance of the inpatient hall from your location? The murderer is fleeing over there! Report him to me! The instructor shouted: "Don't let him escape from the gate, all the senior commissioners will give me a top!" Death is going to keep that bastard thing for me! ”
Lin Nian suddenly looked up at the main entrance of the hall, and sure enough, at a glance, he noticed the 'strong man' standing out from the crowd, dressed in women's civilian clothes and bulging by muscles, this guy was like a walking tank car to open all the crowd in front of him and rush to the door of the hall! And in his waist is the unconscious Helena!
Seeing that pale face, an indescribable sense of anger surged up from Lin Nian's heart, and the murderer took Helena hostage in front of him, which was completely like hiding in a tree hole and brazenly snatching the black bear's honey, which was a naked provocation!
The senior commissioners tried desperately to push through the crowd and crowd forward, but the crazy people completely lost their minds and couldn't control it, and they have now become a natural barrier for the murderer, protecting each other from this place where the net has been laid!
Lin Nian subconsciously rushed over, but before he could run two steps, a passerby suddenly collided with him, as if there was a chain reaction, and the people around him were all upside down and pressed towards Lin Nian, and he was forced to take only a few steps back before he was crushed to the ground and was trampled on, and then he looked up at the murderer's position, which was much farther away than just now!
Ten seconds, no, at most seven seconds, the murderer can squeeze out of the inpatient department along the flow of people!
Only 100 meters outside the door is the bustling streets of Chicago, once the murderer enters the city like a steel forest, when the executive department wants to find him again, the kidnapped Helena must have become a cold corpse!
It's so sudden, this attack completely goes against the style of a serial killer, this is not murder at all, but a righteous and bright hijacking! Even the tactical department of the executive department did not expect that the murderer would act so vigorously in public! And he's on the verge of succeeding now!
"Clear the way! Get out of the way! No matter how much Ryder yells in the headset, the chaotic scene cannot be effectively controlled, and the murderer can only be seen constantly advancing and advancing in the black wave, like a victim swimming towards a white lighthouse, as long as he steps into the light outside the door, he can gain eternal freedom.
Just when everyone was jumping impatiently, a deafening gunshot suddenly rang out in the hall!
"Who fired the shot?" Ryder's head went blank and he subconsciously asked, but no one answered him.
The three gunshots even the eardrums of everyone with echoshocks were buzzing, the person who shot was by no means a senior commissioner who intercepted the murderer, their pistols were filled with steel core live ammunition, the murderer was in the crowd at the moment, anyone could be his shield, and shooting rashly was bound to be the next choice, shooting indiscriminately in this chaotic situation would kill people!
"Robbery! Everybody squat! Whoever runs one more step will blow his head out with the next shot! A deafening cold roar swept through the audience, accompanied by three outrageously loud gunshots, and the sound echoed through the hall as if it was about to lift off the heavenly spirit cover.
This angry "robbery" confused the senior commissioners at the scene, and Ryder, the instructor in the combat conference room, was also stunned.
Robbery? Dare to ask the brother who shot the brother, is this time a time for robbery? If you want to rob, why not pick the bank diagonally across the street from the hospital? Did you rob the bank and go to the wrong door?
Surprisingly, the crowd in the hall who were originally fleeing in a hurry were all frightened by the sound of the eardrum-tearing gunshot, and nearly 100 people squatted on the ground like a PTSD attack when they heard the word "robbery", as if they had fallen collectively.
Lin Nian turned his head to look and found that the person who shot was Caesar, he did not retreat with the temporary commissioners of the monitoring group, but chose to stand up and shoot at the sky, and in an unexpected way, he saved the current unfavorable form for the executive department! Those outrageous gunshots were made by his Desert Eagle, and the pair of guns that were enough for the men were not only powerful, but also noisy enough to make people's eardrums bleed, which just achieved the effect of shocking and perfect field control!
"Well done, first grade! The senior commissioner stopped him for me! Ryder saw the crowd on the screen in the war conference room, and his eyes lit up, and he understood Caesar's intentions.
Loud yelling can't control chaos, so suppress chaos with even greater chaos! In this country, the people have developed the habit of cooperating with the first time in the face of such a bad event as "robbery", and the squatting and paralysis on the ground is completely driven by their instincts, and these gunshots did not hit anyone but directly disintegrated the human barrier carefully created by the murderer!
In the battle room, Ryder slammed his fist against the steel table and knocked out a dent, this is what the elite of the headquarters should look like, efficient decision-making! Outstanding execution! Turning the tide with one-on-one strength and supporting the building!
Now there are only the commissioners of the executive department still standing in the hall, and the burly murderer who is tall and strong and rushes straight to the door without paying attention to the sound of gunfire! Lin Nian also saw the appearance of the "bastard" in the instructor's mouth at this moment, and his eyes fell on Helena's bloodless face, and for a while, an unpentable emotion rushed to the back of his head.
At this time, there was no flow of people to stop the three senior commissioners had rushed to the burly murderer's side, one of them took out a gun and was about to pull the trigger, at this moment the murderer's bloodline advantage was really revealed, he was like having eyes behind his back, and suddenly grabbed a passer-by on the ground and threw it high at the senior commissioner who was about to shoot!
"Everyone in the hall is his hostage, and the senior commissioner on the scene is ready for melee combat!" Ryder couldn't help but shrink his pupils when he saw the murderer's exaggerated arm strength, this kind of strength was not inferior to the strength of the 'A'-class hybrids who specialized in combat, and the 'A'-level danger of this mission was probably only high!
The other two senior commissioners hyenas are generally short and sprinting, they are the best in the executive department, and their bloodline advantages are no less than the murderer's 'A' level, and the speed is naturally not much slower than the other party, and in an instant, one person kicked the murderer's two legs and rolled to the front to block the door of the hall, and the murderer who lost his balance fell to the ground with a bang, but he still hugged Helena and did not let go!
"All irrelevant people spread out into the corner!" Caesar in the corner of the hall saw that the senior commissioners had retained the murderer, and immediately opened fire, driving the crowd at the entrance of the hall to separate into a large open space on both sides!
"The 'snake' and 'mirror' are guarding the door like this, and the 'dagger' is blocking his retreat!" Seeing that the place of the 'decisive battle' was successfully vacated under Caesar's command, Ryder couldn't help but start the final ambush transfer with high emotions.
The three senior commissioners gave each other a look, and surrounded the murderer who held Helena in the center in the shape of 'product' according to the order, two blocked the door, and one forced the retreat, completely controlling the scene!
After the gunshot, the hall fell into an eerie dead silence, the chaos of the square as if it had never existed, and now it was quiet only to hear the rapid breathing and small sobs of the crowd.
The burly murderer on the ground whimpered and roared and climbed up, he held Helena in his left arm, looking around with a hideous face, and the three senior commissioners all lit up their golden pupils under the excitement of emotion, and slowly felt out the cold weapon of a dagger or knife in his hand and put on a fighting posture.
"He's scared." Lin Nian, who was watching the battle from a distance in the hall, was suddenly stunned, he found that the murderer's legs were actually trembling involuntarily, and his muscular face couldn't help twitching, and his expression was between anger and extreme fear.
"It seems that our enemy is a coward, who dares to commit a bloody crime but does not dare to bear the consequences, but he should also be afraid, he should have trembled like a child who did something wrong when he killed Andrew, but unfortunately we can't give him forgiveness." Earmelet Rieder said coldly, his face in the battle room was as hard as steel: "The enemy has a hostage in his hand, don't act rashly, you don't need to leave a living mouth when you move for a while, find the opportunity to kill with one blow!" ”
